6. Better Off Friends

You're the one that I thought I wanted
But it wasn't meant to be
I thought you were the answer to my prayers
But I was too blind to see
How much it hurt to know that you
Didn't feel the same as I
But time has finally revealed to me
The real reasons why

We were never meant to be together as one
You're a star meant for another's sky
Before I truly understood it all
How many lonely nights I'd cry
But as the fog clears it all comes into focus
And we're closer than we've ever been
No matter how much I wanted for us
All along we were better off friends

I feel as though a weight has been lifted
Though we're not where I'd hoped we'd be
The truth has left an ache in my heart
But it's also filled a void in me
I would've done anything for you
Whatever it would have taken
Still I'd do anything you ask of me
Our friendship will not be forsaken

We were never meant to be together as one
You're a star meant for another's sky
Before I truly understood it all
How many lonely nights I'd cry
But as the fog clears it all comes into focus
And we're closer than we've ever been
No matter how much I wanted for us
All along we were better off friends
No matter how much I wanted for us
All along we were better off friends
